Emilia Romagna Castles

On 20 June 2026, on the occasion of the Pink Night, the Estense Castle in Ferrara will remain extraordinarily open until 11.30 p.m., with an evocative architectural illumination in shades of pink.
Take this fantastic opportunity to visit the fortress accompanied by the tales of a qualified guide, on a journey through the centuries that will lead you to discover the residence that hosted the splendours of the ducal court. A place full of history and charm, amidst cursed loves, court intrigues, illustrious personalities and sumptuous banquets. From the dungeons where Don Giulio d'Este was imprisoned to the Orange Garden, passing through the frescoed halls of the piano nobile and ending - for those who wish - with the enchanting panoramic view from the top of the Torre dei Leoni.

The price of the guided tour does not include the entrance ticket to the Castello Estense, which can be purchased at the ticket office (single ticket 5 euro - supplement for climbing up to the Torre dei Leoni 2 euro)
